There are a number of universities in our country that offer programs of engineering, medicine, surgery, and sciences. Arts is not taken as high importance. However, arts have a major contribution to our society, from establishing a government to organizing a gathering, arts is the tool of learning about policies. Hence, Habib University offers liberal arts education that leads to the learning of development and policies through the “Social Development and Policy” program and communicating through multi-media such as videos, images, posters, etc through the “Communication and Design” program. However, it is a newly-built initiative by the university to increase the number of individuals, taking interest in such fields.

There is no such thing seen among the students and the faculty that is known as a rivalry. The coordination bond among them is remarkable. You cannot identify if one is an instructor or a learner. At Habib, teachers learn from students and vice versa; either it is related to a specific course or personal life. A brilliant sense of cooperation is visible in Habib’s society.

10. Chai Sessions with the President

The word “President” is ironically a bold word that reflects a sense of respect, honor, an old man with cruel thoughts, and grey hair. But no, this is not the case in Habib.

Chai sessions are arranged every semester with Mr. Wasif Rizvi, who is the current president of Habib University. The basic objective of arranging those chai sessions is to develop an informal state of the environment among the students and the president. In those chai sessions, students discuss their problems, achievements, issues, and much more with other students and the president. However, it is a constructive initiative by the students at Habib that leads to stressful conversations and personality development.
